मराठी अर्थ
शब्द:
ॐ सङ्ग्रहाय नमः।
विवेचन:
जो प्रलयकाळी सर्व सृष्टीला आपल्यात सामावून घेतो, तो संग्रहः. विश्वातील सर्व नावे, रूपे आणि तत्त्वे अखेरीस त्याच्यात एकवटतात. तोच विस्ताराचा आधार आणि संकोचाचा अंतिम आश्रय आहे.
अर्थ:
एकत्र करून ठेवणे; जमवलेले वस्तू किंवा माहिती.
English Meaning
Meaning:
Om Sangrahaya Namah।
Simple Meaning:
From *sam* (together) + *graha* (to hold, to collect); "He Who Holds All Things Together" — the great integrating force that prevents creation from flying apart, the cohesion at the heart of all existence
Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**Two dimensions
(1) Cosmological: At the time of ‘pralaya’ (cosmic dissolution), Viṣṇu draws all of creation back into Himself — all beings, all elements, all worlds collapse into the primordial unity of the Lord. He is the great Saṃgrahaḥ — the collector of the cosmos at the end of each cycle. (2) Soteriological: He draws all sincere souls toward Himself through the magnetic pull of His divine nature — His beauty, His grace, His love. The Bhagavad Gītā (18.61): the Lord dwells in the heart of all beings, causing them to revolve on the wheel of saṃsāra — but simultaneously, the same Lord draws the sincere seeker ‘off’ the wheel and toward liberation.
